Rick's German Pancake (Dutch Baby)

DutchMy daughter-in-law introduced me to this wonderful recipe. This is simplicity itself. Just eggs, milk, flour and butter whisked together and baked, and you have a lovely breakfast or brunch dish that has a texture somewhere between a pancake and a fluffy omelet. Serves four to six.

Ingredients

4 eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup all-purpose flour

A dash of salt

1 TBS unsalted butter

Recipe

Place rack in middle of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees.

In a 10 or 12 inch cast iron skillet place butter and put the skillet in the oven for about four minutes or until the butter.

In a medium bowl whisk the eggs until they are smooth. Add the milk and whisk to mix. Add the flour and salt and whisk until you have a smooth batter.

When butter has melted remove the skillet from the oven and swirl to coat the bottom with butter. Add the batter to the skillet and return it to the oven. Bake for 15 minutes or until the pancake rises and is lightly browned.

That’s it! Serve with your favorite jam, or apple sauce, or real maple syrup. Enjoy!
